THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The refugees being shown adds more to how big the ryunka thing was. More background on Nataru and Birdy's childhood, with an appearance of Violin. An idea of romance is talked about. Not much happened but overall good episode.

Violin, voiced by Mamiko Noto. She really is the best for those motherly roles.

I quite liked this episode. It gave us a little more depth to Birdy and Nataru's relationship, while increasing the paranoia within the ranks of the fugitives, and introducing a new character, Violin. Not to mention some funny exchanges between Birdy and Tsutomu.

Interesting episode, it's a good thing we are able to see Birdy's past but I would like the plot to develop a bit faster.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Nice episode, the graphics are a bit meh at some parts but the animation can make up for it...
Halfway through the episode the thought, "What the hell happened to Nakasugi" popped into my mind. Random but, is she going to be in this season at all?

That guy with silver hair carrying little Birdy-san after saving her from a monster in her flashbacks was actually...

Not a whole lot of development this time around, but it did look like the art overall was a step up from last episode.

The story in this season seems a lot better than last season, Birdy is just a much more interesting character than Tsutomu. The animation does feel cheap but that's probably because it is...
Birdy is a fucking badass, awesome how she hit through the gun and destroyed the wall all in one punch!

Noto Mamiko in this episode and Kawasumi Ayako last time. Who's going to be guest starring next week :)

This anime is finally getting truly good. I was like "meh" back when the first season started airing, but I'm glad I decided to watch it after all.

And the OP is awesome btw.

Enter Mamiko Noto! She seems like a very caring person, just like she really is. <3

Damn, and I thought I couldn't enjoy this series more than last season. I love the opening and ending, and the story is continuing from the ryunka blast. Very good, I thought it'd be some whole new story that had nothing to do with season one.

Great episode again.
This episodes for this anime are underrated.
More 4 stars than 5 stars. Users were strict in 2009

I liked this because it just added so much more to what happened with the Ryunka.

Also raise the death flags for Nataru.

Those are some trash humans Birdy took care off. Getting the bad vibes for how this is going to end for Nataru though, Seeing the refuge camp really added the impact of Ryunka incident.
